    Hi Hi!

    We are a French-Mexican couple, we have a piece of land in the mountains in a community near San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. We have a cabin with two dogs Nala and Canelo and a cat Balul!

    We put a lot of energy and love into this project and we are looking for loving animal beings and careful.

    We are looking for a couple of volunteers who agree to stay for a month or 3 weeks in our home while we're out of the city, between the 17 december till 10 january. The mission would be to take care of the animals, caress, give a lot of love to them. Maintain the place (house,mow grass, garden...).


    The cabin is made of mud, wood and straw. We have an equipped kitchen, dry bathroom, hot water with solar heater, electricity, internet, drinking water, a room with a double bed.

    We live in Santa Rosa, a native community 20 minutes by car from the Merposur market, about 30 families live in the community, within the community there are some small stores where you can get very basic food. Our little piece of land is a little outside the center of the community (200m). There are two colectivos (transport) that go to and from San Cristobal every 30 min, near our place (a 10-minute walk).


    San Cristóbal is a magical town that offers many cultural and traditional events, there is a lot of good music. It has some beautiful parks around it.

    It is important for us to receive people who share our values. Respect for the environment, for all the beings that live around us and for the planet in general. No type of discrimination is allowed in our home. Love and altruism will save us!!!

    If you are interested in rustic life in the mountains, contact us!

    We will be requesting to make a video call or meeting us if possible before moving on to the stage living at home and recognizing the place and its inhabitants :)

    Hola, Hola!

    Somos una pareja franco-mexicana, tenemos un pedazo de terrenito a la montaña en una comunidad cerca de San Cristóbal de las Casas, Chiapas. Tenemos una cabañita con dos perritos Nala y Canelo y un gatito Balul!

    Pusimos mucha energía y amor en este proyecto y estamos buscando seres amorosos de los animales y cuidadosos con los recursos limitados de la montaña.

    Buscamos una pareja de voluntarios que estén de acuerdo en quedarse (por 3 semanas o un mes) mientras estamos fuera de la ciudad, a partir de 17 de diciembre hasta 10 de enero , puede ser una semana antes también. La misión sería de cuidar, acariciar, dar mucho amor a los perros y gato. Mantener el lugar, limpio y mantener (huerto, podar pasto, etc...).

    La cabaña es de barro, madera y paja. Tenemos cocina equipada, baño seco, agua caliente con calentador solar, electricidad, buen internet, agua potable, un cuarto con cama doble.

    Vivimos en Santa Rosa, una comunidad nativa a 20 minutos en carro del mercado Merposur, alrededor de 30 familias viven en la comunidad, dentro de la comunidad hay algunas pequeñas tiendas donde se puede conseguir alimentos muy básicos. Nuestro terrenito esta un poquito a fuera del centro de la comunidad (200m). Hay dos colectivos (transporte) que van y regresan de San Cristobal cada 30 min, cerca de nuestro lugar (a 10 minutos caminando).

    San Cristóbal es un pueblo mágico que ofrece muchos eventos culturales, tradicionales hay mucha buena música. Tiene unos parques hermosos a su alrededor.

    Es importante para nosotros recibir personas que comparten nuestras valores. el respeto al medio ambiente, a todos los seres que viven a nuestro alrededor y el planeta en general. Ningún tipo de discriminación esta permitido en nuestro hogar. El Amor y el altruismo nos van a salvar!!!
